Souvlaki Salad Recipes

Steps:

• In a large glass bowl, mix together lemon juice, olive oil, soy sauce, oregano, and garlic; add pork, onions, and green peppers, and stir to coat. Cover, and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours.
• Preheat grill for medium-high heat. Thread pork, peppers, and onions onto skewers.
• Lightly oil grate. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes, or to desired doneness, turning skewers frequently for even cooking.

Steps:

• Combine 1 tablespoon olive oil, Greek seasoning, lemon juice, and garlic in a glass bowl; mix well. Add chicken to marinade and turn to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, but not longer than 4 hours.
• Mix tzatziki, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and salt in a small bowl. Refrigerate salad dressing until needed.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Place chicken pieces on the grill and cook for 5 minutes, turn, and grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the centers should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Combine romaine lettuce, bell pepper, cucumber, and cherry tomatoes in a salad bowl. Drizzle with tzatziki dressing and toss to coat. Divide salad into 4 equal portions and top with cooked chicken.

Steps:

• Mix the garlic with 2 tsp of the oil, the lemon zest and 1 tsp juice, lots of black pepper, and ½ tsp oregano in a large bowl. Tip in the pork and mix so the meat is well coated. Set aside to marinate for 30 mins if you have time.
• Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a non-stick pan. Add the chopped onion, cover and cook for 5 mins, then remove the lid and stir in the rice, dried mint and bouillon. Pour in 300ml boiling water. Cover and cook for 30-35 mins until the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is tender. Stir in the dill and a squeeze of lemon juice.
• Meanwhile, heat the grill to high or light your barbecue. Thread the pork onto two skewers. Mix the tomatoes, cucumber, red onion and olives in a bowl with the remaining oregano, vinegar, remaining oil and a squeeze of lemon. Pile onto plates and top with the feta.
• Grill the souvlaki for about 4 mins each side until they are cooked, but still juicy. Serve with the salad and rice.

Steps:

• Mix all of the marinade ingredients in a bag with the chicken.
• Shake to coat.
• Original recipe didn't call for any marinade time, but we marinated for a couple of hours.
• Broil, grill, or pan fry chicken until done.
• Set chicken aside to cool slightly.
• Cut chicken into 1-inch pieces.
• Combine all dressing ingredients together in a bowl.
• Mix well.
• Combine chicken with salad fixins; pour dressing over all and mix well.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Toss the chicken in a large bowl with the lemon zest, 1 tablespoon each lemon juice and olive oil, 1 teaspoon oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; let sit for at least 5 minutes.
• Spread the pita pieces on a baking sheet and toast in the oven, tossing halfway through, until crisp, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool.
• Meanwhile, preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning occasionally, until cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Make the dressing: Combine the yogurt, remaining 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon oregano, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small bowl. Stir in any juices from the plate of cooked chicken and 2 to 3 tablespoons water.
• Toss the lettuce, a few spoonfuls of the yogurt dressing and the pita chips in a large bowl; season lightly with salt and pepper. Divide among shallow bowls. Top with the chicken, tomatoes, cucumber and feta. Drizzle with the remaining dressing.

Steps:

• Soak red onion in a bowl of ice water in refrigerator to remove strong taste, at least 30 minutes. Drain and rinse.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; cook the rotini at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes; drain and rinse under cold water.
• Mix onion, pasta, tuna, celery, roasted red peppers, sun-dried tomatoes, feta cheese, parsley, basil, capers, and Greek dressing together in a large bowl. Allow to marinate in refrigerator, 4 hours to overnight.
